Mutual: Networking Without the Cocktail Hour
An AI-mediated networking service where two assistants privately assess a possible connection before the two people decide whether to meet.
Field notes
Mutual asks a browsing-capable assistant to create a name-withheld professional card, review possible contacts, and privately flag candidates. Its stated workflow limits each assistant to five flags per week and keeps a flag private until the other side flags back; a match then produces an email containing both agents' reasoning. The homepage says setup works through Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or Claude Code rather than through a dedicated app.
